It is! And it was directed by a very young Alfred Hitchcock! There are 5 novels featuring the character Richard Hannay. 39 Steps is the first, Greenmantle is the second. They were very popular in their day. 39 Steps is the only one made into a movie though?
Can anyone ID the book? Just curious
Greenmantle by John Buchan. His best known novel was The 39 Steps.

Came here for this, thank yoy
Was that the one made into a movie with Robert Donat or whoever, and in one scene he sticks his finger up at the audience but there’s no finger?
At least, I think that’s how that part went in The Catcher in the Rye when Holden describes going to the movies with Phoebe.
